This Guy Cut A Hole In His Floor So He Could Have A Beer Tap In His Kitchen

Who doesn’t love a cold beer or soda fresh from the tap? For most of us, it’s a luxury that’s reserved for bars or restaurants.

Redditer averagejones wanted to drink tap beer and soda in the comfort of his own home. Not only did he accomplish his goal with ingenuity and style, but he shared the step-by-step directions with followers. So far, nearly half a million people have viewed his project, which is far less complicated than we ever imagined. Take a look!

Before starting his project, averagejones already had a basement refrigerator with a single keg. At any given time, it held beer or soda — not both. Worst of all, he had to walk downstairs to pour a drink!

There was a small space for taps in the kitchen, but with young kids in the house, he didn’t want to put in a huge fridge or kegerator. Instead, he commissioned a barrel worker to cut an old wine barrel in half.

After a coat of finish, it was ready for its new home in the kitchen. Now came the hard part. Would he actually be able to run keg lines to the basement? And if he did, would he be able to figure out the right combination of gas and pressure?
